Villas-Boas digs at Varandas: Sporting frustrated... | OneFootball

André Villas-Boas reacted this Wednesday to Torreense’s surprising Portuguese Cup triumph over Sporting. Porto’s president spoke to journalists on the sidelines of the ECO Festival and highlighted the historic achievement by the team from Torres Vedras.

“I was not involved in the Portuguese Cup final. I have little to say, it was a surprise. It is the spectacle of football that should be celebrated,” André Villas-Boas began, before praising Torreense’s run.

“Congratulations to Torreense, it is an unprecedented achievement. They had already done it last year, much to everyone’s surprise, against Benfica, in the women’s competition. Congratulations to the entire structure, it is a great achievement that marks the history of the Portuguese Cup,” added the Porto official.

The blue-and-white leader also commented on the disappointment felt at Alvalade after the defeat at Jamor, although he stressed that he did not intend to analyze the current situation of the team led by Frederico Varandas: “Sporting will be frustrated at not having managed to get the result they wanted, but that has nothing to do with me, I am Porto’s president,” André Villas-Boas concluded.
